In the almost 8 years that my husband and I have been living in our current home, deer have only come in our backyard 4 or 5 times. Until this year...
Our backyard is completely fenced in, but it is only a post and rail fence (with chicken wire on it to keep the rabbits out) and is about three and a half feet tall. However, most of the backyard has trees or shrubs around the perimeter against the fence. I have read that deer won't jump a fence if they can't clearly see where…

Clare, The house has some landscaping but needs more. There are a few shrubs and Hydrangeas and Crepe Myrtles in the front and back. I will be moving my Iris there and will work some perennials in. Would like to plant a few more trees. Just had the termite inspection done today and they found that there were termites. So, tomorrow Matt is going to Nashville to get another inspection done while he is there to see how bad and it sheet rock needs to be taken out so they can see how much damage. If too bad, we will have to look for another house.:( Hope all goes well.

Clare, Your garden should be featured in every garden magazine. It is gorgeous! When we moved to this house last August, I had visioned doing some of the things you've done since I now have the space. However, we are moving again. This time to Nashville and the house we found has a smaller yard, again, but this time no neighbors looking down into it. It sits on the golf coarse so it will still be a challenge to get looking the way I want. Thanks for sharing your beautiful garden pics! It's very inspiring!
Thanks again Clare... this is a later blooming Rhododendron. It blooms with the later azaleas .. which is great.

Thanks you Clare, I like what you've been doing to your garden also. :o}

Thanks Clare, I think you're right.. about 3 years old... but this one doesn't seem to want to climb very much.
